On Ubuntu 12.10, I want to install cups-pdf. Using apt-get install cups-pdf works okay, but I want to install it in code source.

This is what I've tried:

  1. Download code from http://www.physik.uni-wuerzburg.de/~vrbehr/cups-pdf/src/

  2. Build cups-pdf:

    gcc -o cups-pdf `cups-config --cflags` cups-pdf.c `cups-config --libs`

  3. Run the following:

    cp cups-pdf /usr/lib/cups/backend/
cp ../extra/cups-pdf.conf /etc/cups
cp ../extra/CUPS-PDF_opt.ppd  /usr/share/cups/model/CUPS-PDF_opt.ppd 
lpadmin -p PDFprinter -E -v cups-pdf:/ -P /usr/share/cups/model/CUPS-PDF_opt.ppd 
lpadmin -d PDFprinter

  4. Try to print a file to PDF:

    lp Hello.c

  5. Nothing happened

  • This is really off-topic for [so]. I'd suggest you ask n [Ask Ubuntu](http://askubuntu.com) but I think you need to pin down the problem more closely first. –  Jan 08 '14 at 07:04
